Baghdad, Iraq - Following the cessation of hostilities in Iraq that removed Ba'athist regime from power, many ministries and municipalities were extensively damaged by looting and stripped of their office furniture and equipment. In response to these needs, USAID created the "Ministry in a Box" (MIB) program. Grants have been awarded to provide kits to a large number of ministries since May; these kits include basic office furniture and equipment that allows at least 100 employees to return to work. The Baghdad Electric Distribution Center for the Rusafah neighborhood will be one of the beneficiaries.
